Phantom Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Drove into my friendly local inspection station last night. Guy asked for my insurance card, drove the car around the parking lot, popped the hood and stared unknowingly at the LS1 and then stuck a new sticker on the windshield. 15 minutes and $12.50. Cry you CA guys cry - Texas Rules!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2many280s Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 They don't even bother to drive my cars where I live. They check the signal lights, brake lights, headlights, and horn....Anything goes after that =) I would almost think that a top fuel dragster with all the lights and grooves in the slicks would pass inspection here =) I've had my car pass several times with no cat and straight pipe exhaust. Oh, forgot to mention, Tx also =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strotter Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Good God, I didn't even know they *do* inspections here in California, other than smog. (and just as an aside, as an Old Guy Whose Seen Em All, I just have to say - the songs are all about "California Girls", not "Texas Herfords" (the cows, the COWS!).)

Sumo Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 When i had my 78 Trans Am inspected a few years ago on the old idle test and rev test, it was putting out so much smoke during the rev part for around a minute. Then it was counting down for another minute while filling up the whole bay with smoke and it viola!!! passed with flying colors. The emissions test here doesnt cover visible pollutants. And even now with the dyno test for vehicles 95 and below even for cars that dont pass i've seen places that tell you to leave your car and be back in an hour and when you come back after lunch, you have a brand spankin' new sticker.

Savage42 Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 OK, now that you brought all this up, here's my 2 cents. (born & raised in SoCal) Living in Oregon for the last 15 years, I've noticed: There are no inspections or smog here in Eugene. (Great for car guys) We don't have the beach, it's "the coast". (I miss Newport & Huntington! No laying in the sun...no sun in Oregon) We don't have hot chicks, just girls wearing Berkenstocks, tye-dye, knappy hair and hairy legs. It's still the '60s here, MAN! The good stuff: I can be in California in a few hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WickedWild Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 There is more in Indiana than corn... I can fill up with 94 at the local pump. Not worries about inspection, cats, or smog. And even towns of 500 ppl have a machine shop, even if they don't have a gas station. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted June 10, 2004 Author Share Posted June 10, 2004 Yeah - but we don't have to worry about having "winter cars" because of the salt on the roads, freezing our blocks, etc. Also, our girls don't braid their armpit hairs like some areas. California may have some good looking girls and great beaches but I'll stack Texas women up against anyone. I will have to give on the beaches though - ours suck and, until we annex Colorado, our snow skiing isn't too great either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Yeah, but don't you midwest guys have houses flying around a few times every years from some kinda strange weather events (don't remember what y'all call those things...we don't have weather in CA...hell when there is more than 1" of rain the Governor calls "State of Emergency").....

Savage42 Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Phantom, you aren't kidding about "braided armpit hair". Nothing more nasty than chicks with more hair on their legs that I do. YIKES!! If you come across one of them "stacked up Texas women" I can import to Oregon, let me know. The only disasters we have around here are the Oregon Country Fair (Hippy Fest) and the days when the Grateful Dead came into town. Crazy stuff!

[/quote'] lol I have my winter/commuter/beater car to deal with season changes. I'll take a twister every month as long as I don't have to fill up with 91.
